"A Sound of Thunder" is a science fiction short story written by Ray Bradbury. It was first published in 1952.
Thunder is not electricity itself, but rather the sound that results from the rapid expansion and contraction of air heated by a lightning bolt. Lightning is a discharge of electricity that occurs during a thunderstorm, which can produce the sound we hear as thunder.
Thunder is created when lightning heats up the air around it quickly, causing the air to expand rapidly and create a shock wave. This shock wave is what we hear as thunder, which can sound loud and booming due to the rapid expansion and compression of the air.
A thunder "slap" does not exist. A thunder "clap" does. A thunder clap is the term given to the sound thunder is and makes.
It really depends on the thunder. A tremor or volcanic eruption can sound like distant thunder. The thunder of a close by lightning strike can sound like a bomb or grenade.
No, thunder cannot make you blind. Thunder is the sound that occurs after lightning, which is a sudden discharge of electricity in the atmosphere. While lightning can potentially cause blindness if someone is struck directly, thunder itself does not have the ability to affect your vision.
Thunder is the sound of lightning, because lightning moves faster then sound it takes a few seconds for the sound to catch up. So there is no sound of thunder, thunder is just the sound of lightning.
Strictly speaking thunder doesn't make a sound. Thunder IS the sound made by lightning. Thunder is always proceeded by lightning and the sound is literally the sound of the bolt of lightning ripping through the air at an incredible speed ionising the air, rapidly raising temperature, breaking the sound barrier and physically hitting the earth. The sound can be described as a rumble, a screech, a boom or a crack depending upon your proximity to the lightning and its type.
No, thunder cannot make you deaf. Thunder is a sound caused by lightning, and while it can be very loud, it is not loud enough to cause permanent hearing damage.
